Here are updates to our Spring Class Schedule - you can go to Spring Quilts in the sidebar to see projects. Barbara's Bamboo & Pinwheels has moved to Sat., March 29, from 10 to 1 and there's still space in it. You'll make one block, divide it, and make two different quilts. Rebecca's Applique moved to Sat., April 5, rom 10 to 1 and there's still one space left. Sandy's Stars Across the Prairie is Saturday, May 3 from 9 to 4, includes lunch! and has space. What a gorgeous quilt - it looks difficult but is not. Sandy's No Tears Tumbling Blocks is Saturday, April 19 from 9 to 12 and still has room - this is a great chance to learn a new technique for an age-old block, actually making it do-able.

I promised choices for kits for the Mystery Sunday - I really can't wait for this class - fun, fun people have signed up for both the sleuthing and the wenching jobs. Plus, while looking for the yummiest food, I've earmarked way too many pages in my cookbooks so I'll have to edit. I took the pictures of the kit choices myself, with no help from blog-guru, Juliette, so I hope they work here. I want her to be proud of me! If you've already signed up, call with the number of the kit you'd like. 274-1443. And, THERE'S STILL ROOM IN THE MYSTERY CLASS!!

After taking a mini-class on this idea, I've been excited to have a Sunday Mystery! Here's how it works: Since the store won't be open, we can shove displays out of the way and set up lots of tables for machines. The students (sleuths) will receive a kit and clues about constructing blocks for a wall quilt; helpers (wenches) will speed up the sewing process by ironing, picking, and keeping sleuths organized. Oh, and lots of great food will be available all day...I love cooking more than I love quilting. The Mystery is scheduled for Sunday, Feb. 10 at 10:00 a.m.

We need two things: students (sleuths) and helpers (wenches)

Sleuths: choose a kit from the selection that'll be available here on the blog in a day or two, call 274-1443 with a credit card and kit choice. Cost is $45.

Wenches: come outfitted with walking shoes, a ripper and a willingness, nay, a determination, to help sleuths complete their quilts. Your reward will be free food, a kit, and an "I'm a Whimsy Wench" T-shirt for the day.
